SPIRIT OF PROGRESS
by Ellen Gennaro
Revolution evolution marching in the streets
Taxes feed the war machine while people need to eat
Retribution’s no solution prisons overflow
Bombs explode in Manchester where do families go?
The past turns to dust and the last shall be first
When the Spirit of Progress awakens on Earth
No one’s left behind as I witness the birth
Of mankind united uplifting the Earth
Contemplation inspiration walking on the beach
Waves roll in and take the mind
Beyond the ego’s reach
Transformation elevation snow falls from the skies
Sunlight warms the mountain tops
Steam begins to rise
I know who I am and I see each man’s worth
I’m the Spirit of Progress awakened on Earth
No one’s left behind as I witness the birth
Of mankind united uplifting the Earth
No one’s left behind as I witness the birth
Of mankind united uplifting the Earth
Of mankind united uplifting the Earth
The Earth
